Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is joining the chorus of conservative voices coming out against the budget compromise that passed the House on Thursday.

The former vice presidential candidate on Thursday wrote a Breitbart op-ed slamming the deal, negotiated by Rep. Paul Wisconsin (R-Wis.) and Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.), saying that it is the usual tax-and-spend budget the tea party seeks to fight.

“No one can argue with the fact that Paul Ryan’s compromise budget bill raises taxes and increases spending,” Palin wrote. “Spare America the Orwellian word games. If the government is taking money out of your pocket to fund its growing Big Brother operations, it’s a tax. Whether money is taken from you via your phone bill, your airline ticket, or your income, it’s a tax. If politicians can’t be honest about this, it’s time to go home.”

The more than $1 trillion budget compromise raises revenue to fund a slight increase in spending through a fee on air travel, requiring federal workers to pay more into their pensions and changing cost-of-living increases for future military retirees.

In the op-ed, titled “Read my lipstick: No new taxes,” Palin said the plan goes against what the tea party stands for and they should fight at least to keep the sequestration cuts to spending that the deal relieves in part. She argued that the fight has to come from tea partiers, as well.

“The political establishment will no doubt tell us that a budget battle will distract us from the fight against Obamacare,” Palin wrote. “But that excuse is just the latest variation in the establishment’s old canard that they’re keeping their powder dry for the next big battle, which never seems to materialize because they’re always too busy waving the white flag and following the path of least resistance until election day.”

Palin referenced 2014 midterm elections approaching and noted that voting for the budget deal would follow an incumbent through November.

“We’ll be watching,” she closed.

The House passed Ryan and Murray’s compromise budget deal 332-94 on Thursday. The bill now goes to the Senate, which is expected to vote on it next week.
